I am here for Friends

About Me

I am a blonde Dublin girlie (& proud of it) who has taken a header and traveled off to the other side of the world and volunteering in a under developed school in Florianopolis, Southern Brazil from August to December. I love my family and friends, music, my sports (all sorts), and of course my dog Fudge, (she is so so cute). I studied International Politics and Globalisation at post grad in DCU and History and Politics as degree in UCD.
